Did you know that obesity takes away the pleasure of eating? A high-fat diet reduces a brain chemical linked to pleasure, and so obese people are reported to be losing pleasure in eating their favorite foods, processed nutrient-void junk-science food stuff. What a shame. Time to stop eating all that bacon, sausage, ice cream, cheese, seed oils, canola oil, cakes, baked goods, cookies, cereals, fried foods, lard, biscuits, pastries, donuts, Starbucks GMO junk drinks, and the list just goes on.
Dopamine is the feel-good chemical our liver produces, sends to the brain via the Vagus nerve, and is stored in tiny sacs in the brain called vesicles. When we consume food toxins on a regular basis, we suffer what is termed Leaky Brain Syndrome. This includes eating high-fat processed foods every day. The dopamine leaks out into areas of the brain where it can’t be utilized, failing to be sent along neuronal pathways. This leads to anxiety, depression, weight gain, sleeplessness, lethargy, and obesity.
Junk food provides a quick rush and then a crash. The long-term health effects are devastating for the brain and body. The cleansing organs get taxed and suffer also. The best solution is to start intermittent fasting, cut out junk food entirely, and boost dopamine naturally with mucuna, vitamin D, oregano oil and watermelon. Yum.
What a nightmare. You eat everything you want with no self-control and then you stop enjoying eating. Wow. Immediate gratification sure does have a huge price to pay. All that drive-through cheap, high-fat food is killing your tastebuds and your pleasure center. Scientific evidence is now proving this. Follow the bouncing donut holes.
Now, UC Berkeley researchers have identified a key underlying cause of this phenomenon — a decline in neurotensin, a brain peptide that interacts with the dopamine network. The new study reveals an unsuspected brain mechanism that explains why a chronic high-fat diet ruins the pleasure of eating those foods, and on top of that, losing this pleasure contributes to the progression of obesity. So the more junk food you eat, the more depressed you get, while getting fatter. There’s a recipe for disaster!
“A natural inclination toward junk food is not inherently bad — but losing it could further exacerbate obesity,” said Stephan Lammel, a UC Berkeley professor in the Department of Neuroscience. He goes on to say, “A high-fat diet changes the brain, leading to lower neurotensin levels, which in turn alters how we eat and respond to these foods,” Lammel said. “We found a way to restore the desire for high-calorie foods, which may actually help with weight management.”
Medical doctors in America immediately jump to put their patients on prescription drugs that make matters worse while covering up the symptoms of Junk Food Disease. Stay away from the quacks and clean up your intake. It actually IS that simple.
